    Ludicrous audio system in a 2016 Model S

    Over the years I’ve been involved on a number of threads discussing aftermarket audio systems in the Model S. On my first two S’s (I’m on my third – yes, I have a problem, I freely admit it) I went with Reus audio, and Cliff Johnson. Cliff is a great guy, but he lives in California, which is...

    Rumor: AP2 high speed firmware release on 2/24

    Headline basically says it... Sources tell me there will be a firmware release this Friday (2/24/17) to enable "high speed" AP for hw2 cars. I assume it will be a slow release followed by wide release next week if there are no huge issues. I don't know what "high speed" means, other than >...

    Model: When does the AP HW2 fleet reach "several hundred million miles"

    Tesla recently stated: "These features operate on a new hardware and software platform. Therefore, their rollout will be measured and cautious until we have generated confidence across several hundred million miles of real-world usage." I thought it would be interesting to model the cumulative...

    Can't login to app - prep for 8.1?

    I tried to use the tesla app this morning and my token was no longer valid, requiring me to reauthenticate. My credentials are not working (bad pass). They're correct.. Perhaps backend/API changes are currently in the works in prep for 8.1? Anyone else having problems? Edit: I reset my...

    Mod?

    Hey Danny or a mod- I tried contacting Doug directly but didn't get a reply. I'm guessing he is on vacation? I'd like to update the subject of the "no more tesla loaners during service" thread since Jon McNeil has replied stating the information I was provided was incorrect. Perhaps "Tesla...

    Tesla service loaner policy

    I traded in my P85D for a P100D a few days ago, and there were a few minor items that Tesla service is going to take care of during an appointment in late Jan. Generally I schedule my service appointments for when a Tesla loaner is available, even if that means waiting a few additional weeks...

    Summon change w/8.0

    I just noticed the behavior of summon on my S with 8.0 is different from when I used it last a few months ago. I couldn't get summon to activate using my fob, so I switched to the app. It wasn't showing as available there, either. Thinking perhaps I forgot to turn it back on after the 8.0...

    AT&T is having network issues in DC metro (elsewhere?) 8/15

    I went to turn on the A/C using the Tesla app and it reported it was waking my car. That's unusual, as I have the "stay connected" option selected, and I was in an area with coverage. The app was never able to connect. Got to the car and google maps wouldn't update and slacker wasn't working...

    Model X on Amtrak auto train - dimensions

    We have a trip to Florida coming up in April, and I was considering the auto train between Virginia and Florida one-way. We did this last year with the Model S and it worked out great. This year we would prefer to take the X, but it looks like the X might be too big (edit: It looks like with the...

    [Rant] locals clogging the Highland Park, IL supercharger

    Ok, forgive me - I'm going to complain and rant here for a minute. I've reached the boiling point with owners who use superchargers for their daily charging. I've driven around 15k miles on road trips using the superchargers, and the only place I've had to wait because locals are clogging the...

    Accessory hitch vs. tow hitch

    I had decided not to get the tow package on my X because I've never towed a trailer before, and I don't foresee the need to do so. However, it would be nice to use a bike carrier, so I've been planning on getting the accessory hitch (it's 1.25" vs. 2"). However, looking again at the...

    Model X Founder's and Signature tour

    I'd Ike to suggest that we coordinate our own Model X tour in North America, perhaps in early January when we hope a good number of sigs and founder's cars will have been delivered. We would pick a day and time, and use the superchargers and perhaps sales/service centers as a meeting point, and...

    White interior? How is it holding up?

    I really like the white interior on the X, but my wife is concerned that it will wear fast, especially in our family car. It's a fair concern. So, while I realize that the leather material is different between the S and the X, I'm curious how the early sig S cars with the white interior are...

    Frunk latch failure on my P85D
